Can anybody help build a email list for my company

Hi Michael,

There are many courses out there that will help you and lots of info here on this forum

Ultimately you need an Autoresponder as a minimum to get started. There are many out there - the usual suspects are Getreponse, Aweber, Mail chimp etc..

Once you have an account with one of these then you need to get a form setup on your website to start gathering subscribers. You can do this simply by adding a form to the side bar on your website and headlining it with "Subscribe for updates" or you can tempt people in to subscribe by giving away a free offer such as an ebook or free video course.

Once the subscriber has opted in you can send automated response emails to them or simply use the service to deliver newsletters on a scheduled basis.

A lot of this depends on what you are trying to achieve and what direction you are hoping to go in.

Can you elaborate more?

i think building a list is really easy. but it does require money or time. if you have money to spend, you can build a quality list of 1000 emails within days. just buy solo ads.
or you can use leadserve.com (just google it). they will sell you good leads

I don't recommend spending money to build a list. Bought lists are pretty useless. Build a list using quality content and customer engagement. Since you're a beginner, I think you need to start by reading around the forums to get an intro. Google some blogs, watch some webinars and youtube tuts.

Once you have a basic idea then start experimenting. Building a good list takes time and effort but you'll be reaping the rewards for a long time in future!

another thing i forgot to mention. odesk has people that will help you build a list quickly or warrior forum classiied

What market are you wanting to build a list in? Make money stuff to be an affiliate for or do you want to build a list of people who could potentially use your web designing services?

Hi Michael

It looks like you have things sort of set up for list bilding but I would say place your opt in box a bit higher on the right hand corner of your blog where your photo presently is. You already have one on the banner anyway.

You already provide content which attracts people so offer something people would really like to have in exchange for their email address.

I don't know your circumstances but once people are joining your list via your autoresponder you should be able to cope without having to outsource your list building.

I hope this helps

building list is easy but how make money from the list is hard so think before you spend money

Solo ads are always a good start but it depends on your business model as it's difficult to always find solo ads outside the IM niche.

I can help you. You can simply set up a campaign with Mailchimp. Do you have any idea about Mailchimp? I can help you to get the best service from Mailchimp. Feel free to ask me. I would love to help you.

If you want to build a list it doesn't have to be that hard. I'll give you an example.

Design a blog, let's say "Web Design", create 5 to 10 high quality articles.

- How to's
- Lists (top 10's)
- Reviews

Publish it. Go to Aweber, sign up and get the opt-in form, put it on your website.
Get Ninja popups or something similar. This will make your email opt-in pop out at people who view your site.

Next you need to bribe people to subscribe.

- Create a free eBook that teaches people 101 ways to get money from web design or from a website.
- Give away extra content for email subscribers
Get creative and do something different.

Getting people to take your bribe/offer

- Promote your landing page using Facebook.
- Sign up to AfterOffers, costs around $1.50 per sign up.
- Use bookmark sites
- Create a YouTube video
- Guest post
Anything the drives traffic.

Then you just need to remember not to give up. Keep this up for at least 2 months, release new books and focus on learning how to advertise with Facebook and other ad networks.

I've got loads of different techniques. If you inbox me I can show you some of my more advanced email marketing techniques.
